Pastamania opens in Brunei. I wasn’t really thinking of having anything but the curious foodie in me got the best of me. And I must say I’m glad that I decided to give their menu a go. I was pleasantly surprise on how good their food is as I’ve heard negative reviews from friends who went to their Singapore outlet.

So give it a try, I’m no Italian food expert but I think their dishes are value for money.
